Making Plans for the Weekend

So let's see, what can you do this weekend?

Friday night I'm probably heading over to the Memphis Hilton for the 8th Annual Spirit of SRVS. It's a Wine/Beer Tasting and Silent Auction. I went last year and was well overserved. That's not a reflection on the party. That's a reflection on yours truly in a room full of free booze. It's $45 for a great cause: SRVS is the Shelby Residential and Vocational Services. You can see their page here. They do a lot of good work. Hopefully they'll have some single 'talent' this year. It's from 6:30 to 10:30. That's four hours of eating and drinking for $45. You won't be able to beat that anywhere. Here's the flyer.

Saturday night has Poison and Cinderella at Mud Island. I won't be there. There'll be a lot of folks trying to recapture their youth, so have fun with that. It should be a badass show.

Saturday night also has the Phoenix Club of Memphis's party: The Speakeasy Martini Mixer and Celebrity Auction. Their flyer is in a .pdf file so I can't post it here. This fundraiser benefits the Boys and Girls Clubs of Greater Memphis. Here are the details:7:30 doors open9:30 auction begins (hosted by Zeke Logan of 98.1 the Max)Located at Oaksedge, 1023 Cherry Road (corner of Park and Cherry)Tasting room sponsors (read: food): Blue Fish, Buckley's, Erling Jensen, Felicia Suzanne's, The Grove Grill, The Majestic Grille, Murano's Italian Cafe, Owen Brennan's, Paulette's, and StellaOther Sponsors: Delta Beverage (booze), Swig (more booze)Attire: "Speakeasy Smooth" Business Casual$100 per couple ($50 per person for those of you who don't do division well)I'll probably go to this. 7:30 until whenever for $50 for all the food and drink I can handle. Thank you! Plus you know there's going to be a ton of 'talent' there. It'll be like going to the Grove for a football weekend.

Saturday night also includes Felix Fest. Always a great time out of our friend Felix's house. Unfortunately I moved within the last 6 months and I don't think he got my new address. He told me about it at the beginning of the summer but I never got my invite. I'm not crashing, plus I promised BG that I'd go to the Speakeasy party with him and the Mrs.
